another day out but this time with my classmates.. We visited Bogor Botanical Garden. The garden is very wide so that it took so much time to see all the plant collection. There are many things that makes Bogor Botanical Garden become a must-visit Botanical Garden in Indonesia. First, it's located near the Bogor Presidential Palace because the palace is located inside the Botanical Garden. Second, the Garden was built/created by Thomas Stamford Raffles in 1800 with help of W.Kent. I googled who is W. Kent and apprently he is the on who created Kew Garden in London. and the third, because it was created in 19th century, of course, there are many old and rare trees..

from the pictures of Kew Garden that I googled, I know I can't compere Bogor Botanical Garden with it. But Bogor Botanical Garden has its own beauty that can't be compared with another Botanical Garden in the world.. hahahhaaa

ok... enough the crap.. here'a are some of the photos of my friends and I..

We took picture in front of Lotus pool but you can't see the lotus.. Thanks to us.. hahahahaha

can you see the big white building behind us?? Yes, it's The Bogor Presidential Palace.. I just realize that it looks like The White House in USA.. hahahaha
